    Let's start with your system specifications See this for what is needed:

    Something else to check (if you can get this far. Open Inventor, go to tools >> Application Options without opening a file:

     

    What do you see here under the general tab?

    I did a search in the source code for Inventor. You should see a dialog, not just a Message box.

    The Dialog should give additional information to fix the problem:

     

    Current Undo Folder:

    Undo Folder Status:

     

    In order to help you with this issue, it would be best if you could post a screenshot of this dialog here.

     

    regards,

    Yes Dash1982,

     

    I agree with this question, can you post the solution because I got the same error on a fresh installation of AutoCADInventor and I have  no idea how to solve this problem. I'd like to prevent that our users get this message

     

     

    Error AutoCADInventor.jpg

     

    If possible I would like to change the path to a location where All Users have acces (for instance d:\Undo) but where can I configure this setting?   

     

     

     

    Best regards,

    I am having this problem in our school district.  I believe it is related to roaming profiles.  I would like to know how to set the path for the undo folder to a place everyone will have access to.  Can anyone help?
